Gorbachev's meeting with Bush and others marked a continuation of his three-day cam- paign to sit down with Americans of different interests. Reagan planned to make a nationally broadcast speech from the Oval Office at 9 p.m. EST, about an hour after Gorbachev returns to Moscow, to report on summit achievements. The summit atmosphere has been good, but there's been scant evidence of solid achievement Vice President President Bush said the two sides were "moving on a broader agreement for major reductions in intercontinental ballistic missiles.

He said on NBC-TV's "Today" show that the newly signed ban on U.S. and Soviet medium-range missiles is enough to make the summit a success, although "this shouldn't be viewed as the mille-nium." Former President Jimmy Carter said on CBS-TV's "This Morning" show that regardless of progress on arms control, Reagan should maintain "a very rigid insistence on the honoring of Purdue finishes forestry study 1 1 Purdue University has recent- ly completed a study on ture (the practice of forestry) for the Hoosier National Forest.

Diplomatic sources in Europe said Gorbachev would meet with his Warsaw Pact allies in' East Berlin before returning to Moscow. Gorbachev responded testily Wednesday to pressure from the Reagan administration, Congress and the American media about Soviet human rights issues.

"What moral right does America have to assume the pose of the teacher? Who has given it the right to teach moral lessons?" he asked at a meeting with American editors, publishers and broadcast executives at the Soviet Embassy. "I told the president yesterday, 'Mr. President, you are not the prosecutor and I am not the accused. I am not on trial," Gorbachev said. Soviet and American arms experts labored until past midnight at the State Department, searching for ways to reduce long-range nuclear weapons without restraining Reagan's Star.

Security was owned by Pennybaker's wife, Joyce, and registered in her maiden name, Joyce Pitts. Indiana police officers cannot be licensed for either security or collection agencies.

There was earlier testimony Pennybaker acted as a collection agent for a Seymour auto supply business. Pennybaker said his role in the Cummins plot included informing Thompson which door to enter, telling him where to find the combination of a safe and relieving the police department's dispatcher to temporarily disable the burglary alarm warning at headquarters. Indiana State Police Detective Earl Taggart earlier said he and two other officers were inside Cummins that morning and attempted to set off the alarm. It did not sound. Pennybaker said he did not touch the alarm that morning and added it would have sounded in the dispatch room after turning the switch back on had it been turned off.

"That might have been why I decided I couldn't do it," he added. Taggart confirmed the alarm would have sounded upon switching it back on in the police radio room. coupon plan comfortable because of a lack of final plans. "I would be in favor of postponing it," Bailey said as his made the recommendation to the board. 'I suggest we table it until people from Seymour and Sunrise are reading off the same sheet of music." Board member Don Scott reiterated Bailey's comment on a lack of final plans existing.

"We decided to postpone the re-' -quest until everything is more finalized and the plans are set in concrete," Scott said early today. "We just wanted them to more or less get their plans in order so we can know what we are passing. A lot of it was up in the air as far as where the studio would when they wanted to do it and other things." Scott added he wished the representatives could advertise for" the service and not go door-to-door collecting the funds. Earlier the board tabled the matter during its Oct. 28 meeting until it met with Sunrise representatives.

Charles Murphy, secretary and treasurer of the Fire Chiefs' Association, had asked the board to authorize the request. "We see a little progress here and there, but they are tough issues," said Secretary of State George P. Shultz, who is flying to Brussels tonight to brief NATO allies. Bush's presence at the embas- sy and his decision to invite prom- inent residents of Iowa and New Hampshire to the breakfast pro- duced cries of foul from some of his rivals for the 1988 Republican presidential nomination, who said he was using the summit to further his political ambitions. An aide to Sen.

Robert Dole. R- said it was "blatantly political" for Bush to invite his New Hampshire campaign chairman and two Iowans to sit down with Gorbachev. Both states provide critical, early tests in the presidential battle. Bush is the only GOP contender to endorse the arms control treaty that Reagan and Gorbachev signed on Tuesday. He has said he looks forward to further accords on conventional arms, chemical weapons and reducing the long-range nuclear missiles stockpiled by the superpowers.

Those weapons were the subject of behind-the-scenes talks between the Soviet and American arms experts. Shultz said today there is "general agreement" for the two leaders to meet in Moscow next year, but only if there are assurances that "something important is to be done." Interviewed on ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" show, i i -rr Mennvhaker which Nierman argued in his final statement, Thompson had said he expected to steal between $3,000 and $100,000 from Cummins. Nierman confirmed $100,000 could have been stolen in the burglary. A third man in the conspiracy, recruited by Thompson without Pennybaker's knowledge, informed Indiana State Police of the plot and aided in its investigation. He was not charged.

His information allowed officers to hide in Cummins and in a nearby parking lot on March 6. Following the year in jail, Pern nybaker faces three years of probation, which will include working with the Monroe County Probation Department to devise a budget for his family's finances. Pennybaker had testified severe financial woes led to his planning the burglary. Questioned by Todd, Pennybaker outlined debts totaling more than $80,000. Pennybaker said that at one time before the burglary plot he was supporting himself his wife, her children and other relatives and friends.

Todd questioned Pennybaker's statement that his marriage might end if sent to prison and hy Thompson was still living with him. "It sounds to me like your stepsons don't pull their weight. Is there some reason they can't work, or are they dead beats?" Todd asked. liluesseyeust dead beats," Pennybaker answered. "But they're my wife's family, and I didn't want to ruin the family."

Bridge Continued from page one Wehmiller said he was not responsible for removing barricades from the bridge and added he was unaware the was closed. "I want the county to learn something here, that when they have a bridge like this they i stheyneed to block it where no one can get on it," he added.

"And if the county was using this bridge after -it was closed-why didn't they block it again?" he asked. Wehmiller added he crossed the bridge about a month ago with a backhoe and had no problems. "There weren't any barricades, and there weren't any signs," he added. Tormoehlen.said closed bridges are vandalized almost as quickly as barricades and signs are erected. "Making certain the barricades and signs are up would require almost a daily check (of closed bridges), and just as fast as you could drive away from one, someone could come up, remove the barricade and drive across the bridge," he added.

"In the past we have dumped stone on bridges that have been out, but we planned repairing this one. It's virtually impossible without taking a bridge out to keep someone from (removing) barricades," Tormoehlen said. The county planned opening bids to repair the span on Tuesday. An engineer's estimate fixed repairs at $34,000. Replacing the span could cost between $50,000 and $100,000.

The county closed the bridge this summer after it failed to meet a minimum 3-ton weight limit. The bridge was rated at a zero-ton weight limit and was one of more than 20 that failed the county's last bridge inspection. Wehmiller also disagreed with county roadS Supervisor Dewey JTiu3ieisstateinentMondaythat i a property owner in the area, Frances Huls of Crothersville Rl, called him about two weeks ago for permission to drive heavy equipment across the bridge. Huls said Wednesday that she had questioned Turner about alternate routes to the fields where Wehmiller was headed with the equipment. "I was asking about using Perry Road (west of the collapsed bridge) or any other way across without crossing the bridge.

I was told it wasn't much better than it was here," Huls said. She added Turner had said the bridge was Simon to help BLOOMINGTON, Minn.
